Events for week of November 30, 2025

...with Rev. Tracy Sprowls. Music: UUFCC Choir. Let’s put it all out on the table today. How shall we be a community of faith living love at the center as the country plunges into an unknown future? We also welcome Ashley back from her sabbatical. And today is the day we bury the time capsule after the annual meeting. Lots going on so, of course, we will have lunch and cake. See you Sunday!

Join in the Sanctuary first for the Wisdom Lesson / welcome Ashley Hamlin back, and then the children will be sung out to go downstairs for all-ages RE.

Each week our kids will gather to explore our world in light of our UU values. Pre-K/K friends will engage in guided exploration of various topics with their wonderful teachers. Sue Smith and Rocky Landers, downstairs in Room D.

Join us for a short Annual Meeting, after which we will celebrate the end of the year! We’ll gather outdoors (weather permitting) for a festive potluck to celebrate the close of the RE year. The Board will provide sandwich fixings, and the RE Team will treat us to an ice cream bar. This is also a special opportunity to welcome back Ashley Hamlin, our Director of Religious Lifespan Education. Bring a dish to share and come celebrate with us!

The UUFCC Jazz Band is open to all. Rehearsals occur on Sundays in the Sanctuary, although occasionally the band may rehearse in Room 6 due to major church events. Contact David Morris if interested.

The Justice Singers of Centre County are an open community gathering for those who find power, healing, and connection through song in the face of injustice. The group sings songs of protest, resilience, and hope, drawing from resources like Rise Up Singing. Participants are encouraged to bring themselves, a friend, and an instrument if they like, but no experience is required—just a willingness to lift your voice. The circle also explores opportunities to sing at local actions and events, such as the May Day Strong Day of Action, Pride, and other protests.
